Product Description

Calculus Differentiation - Derivatives of Trig Functions

This resource contains total of 20 problems. Students will practice differentiation of common and composite trig functions.

The packet has 2 worksheets:

⟐ The first worksheet has the students finding the first derivatives of 10 trig functions using differentiation formulas, the product and quotient rules and the derivatives of the three main trig functions.

⟐ The second worksheet is finding the first derivatives of 10 composite trig functions using the chain rule.

The worksheets can be used as class practice, for an extra practice or enrichment, an assessment or homework assignment. It can be also used as a partner activity like:

⟡ Partner A will solve WS # 1 while Partner B solves WS # 2, then they swap papers and Partner A will solve WS # 2 while Partner B solves WS # 1. Once they have completed the work, they compare their results. If there are different answers to one and the same problem, students have to identify and correct any errors.
